This week on the podcast, Jenna + Beth are talking about what it really means to guard your heart and why staying connected to Jesus changes everything.

Inspired by Week 2 of our Lent devotional Who Do You Say That I Am? by Debbie Herbeck, we dive into Jesus’ words in Gospel of John 10: “I am the gate… I am the Good Shepherd.”If He’s the gate… what are we letting through?

From honest conversation about social media and “brain rot,” to the vulnerability of childhood exposure to pornography, to the quiet ways we feel helpless in a chaotic world, this episode is a raw and hope-filled look at:

- Playing “fast and loose” with our souls when we scroll

- Why we don’t have the grace to carry burdens God never asked us to hold

- The lie that more information = more control

- Closing the doors to sin and reopening the windows to light

- Becoming holy so our prayers become powerful and effective (James 5:16)

If you’ve felt overwhelmed, distracted, helpless, or spiritually exposed, this conversation is an invitation to come back to the Gate. To let Jesus protect what enters your heart. To deny yourself, pick up your cross, and follow the One who already won the battle.

✨ It’s not too dark.

✨ It’s not too far gone.

✨ It’s not too serious for Him.

Let’s close some doors in Jesus’ name and walk into the light together. 💜
